  • 1840.05.08/ maison de ventes : Christie's. Vente de l'œuvre décrite comme [[A Storm and St. Paul's Shipwreck; this composition exhibits, in front, a number of persons, most of whom are engaged assisting the distressed, and collecting objects floating ashore from the wrecks; from hence the eye looks over a rolling ocean to some lofty rocks on the left, against which a vessel has struck, and the sea is breaking over her in heavy surges. A dark and tempestuous sky, torn by the violence of the hurricane, increases the awful grandeur of the scene. This picture is a fine example of the superior powers of Backhuyzen in this class of subjects. From the collection of Mons. Robit. See Smith's "Catalogue."
